Even though Calbert Cheaney was a great IU and college basketball player, he could have done more. I still think that Cheaney did not reach his full potiential as an overall player. He should have been one of the best that ever played this game.

There is a strong case in his NBA career- which he should have been a superstar and rank up there as one of the best stars that came out of IU such Isiah Thomas. I believe Cheaney play hard and played to win but he did not have that assassin mentality.

How bout you do a list of the top 10 fan favorites? Not necessarily the best players, but the ones who got the fans outta their seats when their number was called.

Along with the others, you have my appreciation and thanks for compiling the list. It was interesting to take a brief look at some of the players of the more distant past, as well as those past players with whom I was familiar.

Certainly, it's difficult to "rank" those players because of era, team, coaching, and individual strength differences. I was just happy to be reminded of a little "glory of old IU" given the fact that its summer and what with the disaster that was 2007-08.

Awesome job as usual fellas.

Big A:

My congratulations to you on presenting to us this exercise.

It was fun, intersting and allowed many of us to research and more fully appreciatete great history of I.U. basketball.

I had buddies from High School, college and work, who do not subscribe to this web site, asking me for updates as the list would eventuate from day to day.

Many were not neccesarily IU fans but all had comments and input regarding the daily results. I was geneally surprised at how much each of these guys knew about the history of IU BB and their recollection of some of these great players.

Outstanding work and my Thanks again
